>South Korea has agreed to transfer oneKF-21Boramae prototype fighter jet to Indonesia, a significant step that strengthens bilateral defense ties and paves the way for the program's first export deal. The single-seat prototype, valued at approximately 350 billion won as part of a broader 600 billion won value transfer package, will be handed over once Indonesia completes its revised financial contribution. This move resolves earlier disputes over Jakarta's participation in the joint development project, which began in 2015 with Indonesia originally committing around 20 percent of the total costs. The prototype, already tested for capabilities including aerial refueling, will provide Indonesia with hands-on experience as the 4.5-generation multirole fighter transitions toward full operational status.>This prototype transfer directly supports ongoing negotiations for South Korea to secure its inaugural overseas sale of the KF-21, with discussions advancing for an initial batch of 16 fighters to the Indonesian Air Force. As a co-developer, Indonesia stands to benefit from technology transfers and development data included in the agreement, enhancing its indigenous aerospace capabilities while modernizing its aging fleet. The deal, potentially worth over a billion dollars, positions the KF-21 as a competitive alternative in the global fighter jet market, offering advanced avionics, supersonic performance, and multirole versatility at a cost-effective price point compared to Western counterparts. For South Korea, this first KF-21 export deal marks a milestone in its defense industry ambitions, validating years of investment in domestic fighter technology.https://www.aeronewsjournal.com/2026/04/south-korea-seals-kf-21-breakthrough-as.html?m=1https://koreanow.com/view.html?vid=YvWseiV_Ryc§ion=news
I thought they canceled it for the Rafale and Kaan?
No one cares, chang. America has the F35 and the F22, other nations don't even have the F18! Now bend over and suck this big american cock, turdie.
>>65059530You lost to iran, retard
And here I am wondering why a plane costs 350 billion and what did it win
based totally domestically made and licensed jet
Indogs actually did it.
>>65059647>based totally domestically made and licensed jetwrong, it's 80% made with american IPs and subjected to ITAR.
>>65059859reminder thats the funniest thing about the Australian Redback too, its like 40% Jew and 30% American
>>65059772Yeah, they actually paid their denbts.
>>65059497Looks like a baby f22/35.
>Gook-22 on top of Chinkoid, Yankoid, Slavoid, Brazilioid, Europoid airframesHow are the suicide rates in Indonesian hangars?
>>65060531its called baby raptor
>>65060891Ace combat air force.
I like this plane. Don't get the hate.
>>65061888Because South Koreans hype it up as if it's better than the F-35 before it has even entered service, and without internal weapons bays.
>>65061906Yes thats stupid. But I still think it's a very good 4.5 gen fighter
>>65061918And as long as you keep it to that level, I don't think you'll find anyone to disagree with you.The KF-21 is shaping up to be a great 4.5th gen option that might even some day be 5th gen.But that's rarely the opinion thrown around on /k/ when the KF-21 is brought up. It's usually followed by posts claiming it's basically equivalent to or better than the F-35 and that once the KF-21 is available, F-35 sales will plummet.
>>65061906Zero real people hype the F21 beyond the F35 mate
>>65062051I can promise you, 10's of thousands of south koreans 100% believe it.Just like they believe all japanese and chinese people are descended from ancient koreans.Gooks love to believe shit that can't possibly be true as long as it makes them look better.
>>65062051She cute.
